URI's Foster signs with Indianapolis Colts

[stonehart1234]

Jason Foster, one of the captains of the URI football team last season, has signed a contract with Indianapolis as an undrafted free agent.

Foster is a 6-foot-5, 305-pound offensive lineman. He played tackle at URI but is expected to be worked at guard by the Colts.

Foster, who is from Vermont, is a two-time All-Colonial Conference selection. His father, Robert, played in the NFL from 1973-78, all with the Giants.

"I could not be more proud of Jason," URI coach Joe Trainer said, according to a news release. "He will be incredibly competitive in that environment. He never red-shirted, and his best football is still ahead of him."

Bring him on.............the more competition in training camp and pre season the better!

the roster limit got upped to 90, right?

We can bring in dozens of people.

the back end of the draft has a lot less significance than we give it

going to play him perhaps at a position thats not his natural one?

Lots of tackles move to guard when they come to the nfl... this guy has a small chance of making the team anyway

True we have so many O-Line signed hope they go with the best in TC not just the ones we have signed.Ben should be played at guard IMO until or if he can go RT.
